Kalitta Air B742 N795CK is operating the flight to Sydney tomorrow due around 0705, 2nd visit.

Schedule indicates another aircraft swap will occur on the weekend, keep the classics coming!

I made a reference to N795CK earlier in the thread . This bird did come out of storage very recently, mainly to replace 1 - 2 other B742's that have recently come to an end. There's a possibility of another one coming out from storage I believe.

I managed to have a bit of a chat to the pilots the other night who flew
N795CK out here and they were quite intrigued at how many people came out to photograph their plane.

Hi all,

Just after an update on what is happening/has happened with the Kalitta flights.
Did we only get the 10 flights or are they still going?

Also,was it only the 2 or 3 742s that operated the flights or did a Kalitta 744F make it here?

Thanks
Jim

I believe it was only the 10 flights. I don't believe any B744F's made it out here.

Thanks Nigel,it was great to have those 742s visit,but I personally would have liked to see at least one Kalitta 744.


Shame it didn't come off

Cheers
Jim
